Paromita, Cricket and Baseball should be considered as a Olympic event as these sports are now played world wide and are also having many visitors in the format of the game. Including these sports in the Olympics will make sure that other countries will also participate in the game and thus resulting more countries getting interested in the game of cricket and baseball.

India which is not famous baseball as it doesn't have a structure for it, will get a chance to know the game as people involved in Olympics will guide Indians in the game, and cricket getting more popular in other countries will be of good beneficiary for the common wealth of the games.

Yes i think Cricket and Baseball should be given one chance to prove itself in the Olympics and see how does public responds to this because this is more important. Cricket is not so much globalise therefore there is always a case that Cricket may not get the recognition. Like in some places people dont know what is Cricket so how can it be introduce in Olympics. People should understand how the game is played and than sports like Cricket and Baseball can be given a chance.

Dear PAROMITA , for your information I think BASEBALL as been already included in BEIGING OLYMPICS . The national game of USA has been included because USA strongly recomended it during SYDNEY OLYMPICS . As far as CRICKET is concerned OLYMPICS mostly organized in countries where CRICKET is not so popular and second problem is it requires special big grounds which will be not of any use if CRICKET not played regularly. CRICKET required entird one day for one match but invent of T20 has realy raised hopes for its inclusion in OLYMPICS. Being strong fan of cricket INDIA I hope that CRICKET will be included soon in OLYMPICS.

Baseball is already been introduced in this Beijing Olympics and T20 cricket can be introduced in Olympics but cricket need a good pitch and a stadium. I doubt cricket will get a entry in Olympics.

cricket has been in limelight for its new formats and flashy presentations in sports arena. I think that these two sports disciplines should be given entry into Olympics. It will certainly add more glamour and spark in the games

Cricket and baseball has been gaining popularity worldwide and large section of world’s population is glued to these games. Especially cricket has been in limelight for its new formats and flashy presentations in sports arena. I think that these two sports disciplines should be given entry into Olympics. It will certainly add more glamour and spark in the games, especially for country like India and U.S.A.
